Leaving for parts west

[ellen_datlow]

Tomorrow evening I'll be flying to Seattle and will most likely be delayed because of the bad weather expected--rain rain rain and maybe thunderstorms. I'm supposed to arrive in Seattle 9:30 pm but I'm sure I won't. Leslie Howle will be picking me up and I'll be staying with her for two nights.

Monday morning I catch a bus to Vancouver, BC, get picked up by Barbara and Christopher Roden--then drive four hours north with them to Ashcroft,where Barbara's wonderful parents are preparing a barbecue for us. Next day we'll all trek to Calgary, stopping at Golden Tuesday night and possibly in Banff enroute to Calgary Wednesday.

I don't return to NY until November 5th (very late)so I've already sent it my absentee ballot. I urge you all to vote as well--in fact, that's what my next post is about.

Have a safe trip and take care! Hopefully the flight doesn't get delayed.

Hello to you! And say hello to Leslie for me!

Sometimes I miss Seattle...but mostly I'm ready to move back to the East Coast.

Seattle?

I live in Seattle. If you can get a chance to meet, I'd love to take you out for coffee or something.

Please let me know via e-mail if you've got the time this trip.

And have a great trip either way. :)

Ellen, I'm in Seattle too! Let me know if have time for tea or something. Ellie has my number if you don't. I'll be downtown at an art opening on Saturday evening--it's Pacific Northwest native art--not sure if you're into that sort of thing. Anyway, I've love to see you if you can squeeze me in.

Sunday evening? Hm. I'm glad you're going to be on the left coast.

I think I'll go call LH now.

I live in Oregon.

Ballot received Saturday; all three adults had voted and ballots were in the return mail by Saturday night.

I'll probably see you at Leslie's. We've got plans to jam on the weekend before Charles's class. It will be nice to finally meet you. Have a safe trip! =)
